This will be a great role for someone who would like a change and specialise in a slightly different area of healthcare. Maybe you are a bit over shift work or are just looking to work in a smaller friendlier supportive environment. Being based in the Far North, you will be working mostly independently although you will have the full support of the staff out of Whangarei.We want someone who can have a laugh, crack a joke who can be a positive addition to our team.
This will be a role you can work around perhaps another job or busy lifestyle. We anticipate work will be on average 2 days a week (casual as needed). As our work is not acute medicine, we can often tailor your hours to suit your availability.You might decide to do this in conjunction with another role or decide to do it just to keep your nursing skills up to date if taking a break from full-time nursing. StaffCare delivers services all over Northland, however most of our staff are based in Whangarei.
You will work predominantly in and around the Mid North. The majority of work will be performed at client’s sites so the ability to get out and about at varying locations will be important. You will develop relationships with companies as you give advice and draw on your NZ nursing experience.
Full training in Occupational Health and our systems will be provided for the right candidate.
